Love surrenders to police

Rocker Courtney Love surrendered to US police today for allegedly assaulting a
32-year-old woman with a liquor bottle at the home of her former manager, authorities said.

Love, 39, was booked on a felony charge of assault with a deadly weapon. She posted $US55,000 ($A79,074) bail and was released.

Prosecutors have said the charge stems from an April 25 incident at the Los Angeles home of former manager Jim Barber.

She is scheduled to appear in court on July 9 for arraignment.

Love also has been charged in three other cases, including two stemming from encounters with police on the same night last October.

Authorities said cocaine and other opiates were found in Love's system after she was arrested in October for allegedly trying to break into Barber's home. Love pleaded guilty last month to a misdemeanor drug charge and agreed to enter a drug rehabilitation program.

She also faces felony drug charges in Beverly Hills Superior Court, where she is accused of illegally possessing prescription painkillers.

Love allegedly gave police a small bag of pills after officers responded to a call from her home hours after her initial October arrest.

Love also was arraigned earlier this month in New York City on charges of assault and reckless endangerment for allegedly striking a fan with a microphone stand at a club in March.

Love, the widow of Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, has been scheduled to tour in June and July to support her solo album America's Sweetheart.
